  <h5>
    The Center for Science and Engineering Education at Lawrence  Berkeley National Laboratory (CSEE/LBNL), 2001 - 2004
  </h5>
  <p class="small">
    The Center, under the direction of Dr. Roland  Otto, adopted the Gnomus Project as one of its official Outreach
    Programs. The  focus of the partnership was 3-fold:
    <ul class="small">
      <li class="small">
        Support Gnomus Curriculum Development for middle school science classes
      </li>
      <li class="small">
        Work with teachers to perfect and field test new ways to reach students who come to class poorly prepared to
        learn science and math - helping them learn the skills needed to carry out Gnomus Card Deck-based activities
      </li>
      <li class="small">
        Present Professional Development Gnomus Workshops for teachers each summer at CSEE
      </li>
    </ul>
  </p>
  <h5>
    Pre-College Program, Center for Underrepresented Engineering Students, 2005 - 2008
  </h5>
  <p class="small">
    This Center at the College  of Engineering, University  of California, Berkeley, under the direction of Dr. George
    Gagnon, collaborated with Gnomus in the development of curricula in math and  science. The program sought to help
    increase the pool of underrepresented  students who might be encouraged to seek a career in engineering and attend
    the  University of California to pursue their studies.
  </p>
  <h5>
    Applied Design Engineering Project Teams (ADEPT), 2005 - 2008
  </h5>
  <p class="small">
    Funded by a GK-12 grant from the National Science Foundation, Gnomus activities were used as part of the
    professional development for college of engineering doctorate candidates and their S.F. East Bay public school,
    science  teacher partners. The aim of the project was to develop hands-on, engineering modules for students in
    grades 6-9 - modules that would help students gain a great appreciation of engineering  while also helping them
    learn relevant, standards-based science and math concepts.
  </p>
  <h5>
    Alameda Community Learning Center,  2002 - 2008
  </h5>
  <p class="small">
    An ongoing partnership with  the Alameda Community Learning Center (ACLC, a charter school in the Alameda Unified
    School District, has been focusing on a Participatory Learning Project. It involves the creation by Gnomus student
    interns of Gnomus Card Decks and of other innovative hands-on activities (Gnomus Activity Boards) that address
    California State Science Standards.
